I bought my first Christmas gifts in October, so of course I've also been thinking about what to wish for myself ever since... It is no secret I love both getting and giving gifts, and honestly I hope I'll never stop doing so. I have a very extensive wishlist on my pinterest, but here's a selection of a few thing I like this year, just um... for your information (inspiration).

Here am I in a "new" dress from Vintagefabriken and a new shorter hair do. I've been feeling a bit low for a couple of weeks now, with an annoying cold and a lot to do at work that have resulted in me not really feeling like blogging. The cold is better now so I'm hoping to be back to normal next week!

Found this sketch in an old sketchbook the other day. My fourth year at uni I had a summer course in Kazimierz Dolny, a small town in eastern Poland. I went with a few of my class mates and our art teacher and met up with architect students from all over Europe. We spent a week drawing, painting and generally having a great time and thinking about it I really want to do something similar in the future. I also wish I could spend some time with the two girls in the drawing again soon, my two fabulous friends M and S.

Today at work I had a workshop with a new client and one of the guys participating had the exact hair as Ten (the 10th Doctor, David Tennant, that is)!! It didn't help he had the same built, glasses and general looks, but it was the hair that did it. It was weird, I was waiting for him to shout "allons-y" the whole afternoon, but he was Danish so that didn't happen...

I spent this weekend with my BFF (bestboyfriendforever) and two of our friends E&M + dog in a cabin two hours away from Stavanger. I had a cold and wasn't as energetic as I would have hoped but that turned out OK since the weather was pretty bad and we spent most of the time inside, playing board-games, watching movies and sipping on whisky. We did go on a couple of walks though exploring the area and even tried our luck with fishing! The luckiest among us? E, who caught a tiny starfish. With a casting rod!

Well, hello there!

This is a diary, of sorts, written by me, Annika, architect turned graphic design student. I spent my first 26 years in Sweden, the following 7 in Norway and now I live with my husband and two cats in Brunei, on the tropical island Borneo. Read my blog if you - like me - are fond of traveling, dressing up, reading fantasy, watching loads of Netflix, looking at cats, dancing Lindy hop and eating candy. Occasionally I get creative and, well, create stuff. When that happens I'll most likely blog about it. Welcome!
